Perfectly Flawed
for Paul's My Flaws Poetry Unofficial Challenge
Perfectly Flawed
My flaws are well-masked behind a smooth veneer of confidence:
Doubting, fearing, desiring bravery; battling demons, seeking peace,
Reaching too high and falling too far, in an elusive quest for perfection.
Then my inner child whispers, isn’t failure better than never reaching at all?
Flaws? Yes, mostly hidden, but slowly, I am learning… I’m enough as I am.
